One other solution that does not required making use of any of the options in the compatibility tab is to install a program into an "unprotected" folder. As an example: Diablo II.
At any stage of the game, pressing the "Print Screen" key will save a screenshot of the action into the program folder where the game was installed, which is by default "C:\Program Files\Diablo II" (or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Diablo II" in 64-Bit). The "Program Files" folders are protected in Vista and 7. For the "Print Screen" function of Diablo II to work corrctly, the game must be run as an administrator in order to allow write access to the "Program Files" folder.
I eliminated this "Run As Administrator" requirement by installing Diablo II (most of my games, really) into an unprotected folder, such as "C:\Games". And I have yet to make use of any compatibility options to get my games to work.
